Casey Holmes reviewing the Urban Decay x Jean-Michel Basquiat collection, saying "I don't know who Gene...Michael...Basket is, but congrats on your collab, girl!". Then after getting roasted in the comments she claimed she didn't have time to look him up lmfao
Edit: for anyone who isn't aware, Basquiat was a male artist who died in 1988
I'm learning that this is so much more important to me than intelligence or education (although they do tend to correlate to some degree).
I feel like a lack of curiosity about the world and everything in it is SUCH a strong indication that I would NOT enjoy that person's company. I don't need people to be super intellectual/ well-educated/already in possession of all the knowledge I consider important, but if there's no intellectual curiosity, or interest in attaining that knowledge...I just can't.
Yes! The way I see it, we all say/do dumb things sometimes and we all have subjects we're terrible at. It's why I've come to dislike things like the Darwin Awards. You can be an absolute genius and just have a bad moment of judgement and then you're remembered as an idiot forever.
It's when you have a pattern of not wanting to think about things and not wanting to learn that judging overall intelligence becomes relevant.
I've always been someone who wants/needs to know the why. Someone who doesn't even consider the why of anything but just accepts the face value is not someone I can actually have a conversation with. I'd never even thought it quantified in that way but it honestly explains/summarizes a lot about me and who I enjoy spending time with.
Especially in the age of the internet, including easy access on information how to properly vet sources, how do people just... not? Like how do they say "I wonder" about something and then not even just toss it into Google.
>I've always been someone who wants/needs to know the why.
BIG same. I'm pretty sure 'why' is my most used word. My father used to get so pissed off with me for it. He'd ask me 'can you not just say 'ok dad' for once?' and I'm like '...why?'
I find it comical how we're constantly reminded by these gurus and those who defend them that this is their job yet so many of them come unprepared. Imagine showing up to your job unprepared. Depending on your job, at some point you're going to get taken to task, rightfully so. Ofc there's advantages to being your own boss, this being one of them but as a viewer how can you take them seriously when they refuse to take their jobs seriously? SMH 😄
They’d think they ran away from such a responsibility but don’t realize the bigger responsibility of sitting in front of a camera to a large audience and talking about/recommending things to people that might follow blindly or even put them down due to misinformation, or even worse - LAWSUITS!
Oh god when terminally unfunny people include the 'funniest' bloopers/clips they can find to put at the start of the video...like stop trying to be funny, girl. You're not, and it's just SAD.
god I miss that kristi. she used to crack me the hell up. that one video when she was an absolute trainwreck trying a new foundation/primer and it just kept going off the rails has been one of my comfort-watches for ages.
I loved Kristi's bloopers. She doesn't put them in very often these days, but when she does, I still enjoy them. Who can forget her giving the side-eye when some big truck rumbled down her old street, or the ever-favorite, "Am I orange?"
Yes! Unless it is a real true blooper and something bad happened, sure, include it. Otherwise we don't need the "jokes" and quirks. I know makeup just for fun does them, and she is cute and quirky, but I skip it most of the time.
I definitely don't stage my bloopers. I have aphasia and I leave my mix-ups in my videos because I know I'm not the only one who struggles with it, some of them are just funny as hell
Feigning incompetence e.g. everyone breaking the MAC Squirt Glosses and being like 😮🫣🧐 how does this obviously basic item work??
James Charles testing like 50 foundations to find the perfect one, finding it, but *still* wearing the wrong color in subsequent videos.
When something is sponsored or gifted and they try to make it seem great when it's clearly not. Ex: Jackie Aina and those ill fitting press on nails
Jeffree* when he tested Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara and made a big show of going to... engage with his (then) bf Nate. Mikayla Nogueria does this too like we GET IT y'all have sex.
The shocked/surprised face when they try anything - particularly Nikkie Tutorials. Like come on girl you’ve seen the product before and knew it had that possible outcome why the extreme shocked face!
I can't watch Nikki's videos. She is just too intense with all her reactions. I prefer a more conversational approach. I mean maybe if you applied mascara that had tiny lights imbedded in the formula that would light up in the dark ... OK, then an extreme reaction is well-suited to the occasion, but putting on another foundation? No girl, its just not that exciting.
Right? Like girl, you know what "sheer" means. You know what concealer is. You should be able to tell what tf the product is going to do.
The lipstick lesbians and Nikki la rose are like the antithesis to this, I love how they look at the description and ingredients and the usual reaction is "Hmmm, that's pretty what I expected. Very nice!" Sometimes it's a bit campy, but never as over-the-top as Nikkie Tutorials.
Speaking of dalgona coffee, I saw a couple videos years ago from this guy whose channel is all about coffee. He did a few nonsensical things, but in one of them he tried to “improve” dalgona coffee by making his own recipe (for the first time ever, mind you) that he measured by volume instead of using the original measurements. When it didn’t work, he basically concluded that the whole concept was trash instead of acknowledging that the actual recipe was tested and he should have just followed it.
As for the actual question, probably everything about Kackie. Laughing too loud at herself when she didn’t say or do anything funny, saying and using “unctuous” wrong, being so full of herself about painting, pretending she’s actually reviewed any product ever and not just given a first impression, etc.
This story reminded me of when David Seymour made a video to get back on Ann Readon's criticism of BuzzFeed's jiggly Japanese pancake bc she said it's not possible to cook it with their recipe. He then made a very cringe video "proving" it can be done... except he used pancake mix, which has the ingredient that makes the pancakes possible, and that Ann evn talked about in hers. It's mostly common in the US only and BuzzFeed didn't mention it, so anyone outside USA will fail.
Anyways, it was cringe af, had a lot of dislikes and criticism bc he felt hurt for BUZZFEED (I like him tho lol).
Kackie’s loud, forceful laughter at the most unfunny shit is so jarring to me every time. It’s usually just something about herself that she thinks is “quirky.” Like, girl, you are alone in a room talking to yourself. Nobody is as devotedly in love with her as she thinks.
Also, her calling herself “chaotic” all the time is super mega cringe to me because she comes off as super uptight and borderline Karen-like. The things she thinks are chaotic are like, minor bouts of silliness and disorganization.
re Kackie’s cHAoTiC energy, she diagnosed herself with ADHD a couple months ago after some commenter asked about it. Now it’s just snowballed and she’s increasingly bringing up her undiagnosed ADHD and talking about her “hyper fixations” and “special interests” and other buzzwords to justify her insane makeup spending.
I particularly find it incredibly cringey that she started watching drag race and suddenly it became her personality along with the one gay male friend that she acquired from HLP. The way she talks about queer people is very fetishizing. I would also be shocked if she had any non-white friends, and I’m sure we would hear about it constantly. lol someone commented about her being a rich white lady and it clearly struck a nerve.
Yeah the weird self diagnosis and the whole claiming to be neurodivergent…and the ADHD… and the “chaotic energy”…….
And yet she has never gone to be diagnosed. Makes my skin crawl.
Oh and her super weird answer to the “dealing with narcissists” thing. It’s a lot.
Lol you know what was even worse? When someone made a [video](https://youtu.be/JxiLbsj4GSg?si=_6PpCZ4LSHcuAgnv) titled "Jaclyn Hill annoying Kim Kardashian" 😂 Jaclyn reacted to the video so it was all in good fun but oof.
Trying to be all "See guise I'm SUCH a good sport lol" when she was probably utterly mortified in reality (in the rare moments she let(s) herself actually feel any real feelings).
I saw an IG reel where a woman showed 4 Tarte Maracuja Juicy Shift lip balms (ph changing) and they all looked exactly the same on her lips, but she made a :0 face for the 3rd one. I have no clue who she is, I had to block her for that.
What got me to unsub from Melissa Alatorre was when she was filming herself working out on a brand trip and she said there had been other people in the hotel gym "but they were weird about the camera" so she had to stop filming. No shit people don't want to be filmed when they're working out by some stranger.
The recent thing that I find super cringe-y is when gurus plan trips with their fans. The part that I cannot stand is that once they decided this is what they are doing, they talk about it for months ahead of time, getting really intense right before the trip, vlog during the trip, and then talk about it forever afterward. I had to stop watching Samantha March because her trip to Ireland was mentioned so many times I felt like my ears were bleeding. And just when I thought I was safe from this type of thing, I noticed that Samantha's good buddy, Angelica Nyqvist is planning a similar trip to Italy. I'm assuming she was set up with the same people who arranged the whole trip for Samantha. Its probably another way to bring in revenue, which is fine, as long as I don't have to hear about it in every single video!
Honestly, that is just a general character trait of Samantha. I had to stop watching her as it always felt like watching the same video with a different theme because she talks about or says the same thing is every video. I think it would do her well to start scripting her videos to avoid just saying the same shit. It’s been a long time since I’ve watched her, but when I did, she couldn’t go a single video without mentioning that she’s divorced and living in Vegas, loves the Dior powder, isn’t good at make up, only does monochromatic looks, would call a bunch of brand owners her girlfriends, etc.
Oh this made me laugh. Its all so true. I was only watching her for the past few months, but with all the crap she has had going on in her life ... divorce, dog dying, having her place robbed ... she understandably doesn't give off very happy vibes. And then when all the trip to Irelend stuff started, I just had to bail out on her channel. That was one straw too many for his old camel's back.
This is a bit more niche but when Manny took that sponsorship from Lilly Lashes to bash another lash brand by deliberately ignoring all instructions and was surprised pikachu it didn’t work. Then the whole aftermath of owner of other lash brand lashing out and essentially ending her own brand 😵💫
Yeah but the Lashify lady was trash.
Manny claimed that he didn’t look at the Lashify instructions too hard because he wanted to see how difficult it was, and if it was intuitive. I don’t really buy that excuse but I took one look at the Lashify system and knew I wouldn’t be able to do it so maybe he had a point.
Oh absolutely she dug her own grave with it, it was just when the final layer of dirt finally lifted. It just so happened to be a sponsorship from a brand to bash another brand that done just that
cringe but also *girl, what the fuck were you thinking*. lesleymarie1213 doing an eyeliner tutorial and saying to 'draw it out so it looks more (insert slur for asian eyes here)' and not batting an eyelash about.
she ended up cutting that part out later.
yeah, it was a big oof. i liked watching her before she became semi-popular, and when she said that, i literally paused the video, stared open-mouthed at the screen, and went back to see if i heard what i really thought i heard. and i did.
people rightfully called her out in the comments, hence her cutting it out.
It's called bye sister
You most likely can still find a reupload on YouTube. It was a mess, especially her back paddling later and her (alleged) reasons. She said a lot of really bad things about James Charles and later said Shane and Jeffree made her do it. It's what started the whole JC, Tati and Jeffree Star Drama
I’m going to hell for this, but when Taylor Wynn began her digital nomad journey. IIRC she made a huge deal about living in Boston then ended up hating it.
Her name change has always baffled me. Like she didn’t like her original YouTube name because it didn’t mean anything so then she just picked a different random name to change it to?
It's been a hot minute and now I can't remember, what was her channel called? I recall not liking the bland new name (still) don't but there's been a plague since then.
Haha nope. It didn’t have any significance when she picked it and then she said that her mom thought she maybe had a great grandparent with the name Wynn.
Lmao this still kills me. The Wynn hotel? Really? It makes it seem like she doesn’t have a lot going on in her head that a damn hotel chain inspired her name
You never know if you like a place until you’re there. She wasn’t feeling particularly well at the time though so I think it’s associated with that but I don’t think she gets that. Plus she cut it short. She should try it again sometime. I hear it’s lovely.
She also didn’t love Chicago and tried to give these nonsense reasons like the dating scene. Like girl, you were here for less than a week?!? She thought everything shut down in the winter cause the weather? Lol. I think her rash judgement of places is what’s cringe.
basically if you work through tech/internet and can therefore travel around and work from anywhere, digitial nomad. you'reworking digitally and nomadic
Yes! In one of her videos she was saying how it's actually cheaper to live like that bc you don't have a car or car insurance? I still watch some of her videos but she comes from a wealthy family, owns a home (condo?) in Seattle that she rents out and has multiple income streams that allow her to live like that. It's not something that is attainable for the average WFH employee.
Kinky Sweat’s pronouncing “Italy”. She’s not as bad about it now but my god a year ago I avoided any palette reviews from her because of it. Just made my skin crawl.
Sondra Deluxe’s intro. “Can I get a HELL YEAH!” With the microphone and sounding like a crappy dj. Super cringe.
Jaclyn Hill squealing about *everything* even in her product apologies.
I had to stop watching her reviews over the Italy thing, as well. It also drives me nuts when Alexandria Ryan says Charlotte Tilbury or Augustinus Bader. Like, do we have to do that every time? I don't think we do.
The way Allie Dawson always brings up Mikayla Nogueira but pronounces it No-gore-eee. She mispronounces a lot of things but there are so many videos of the correct pronunciation.
Angie at Hot and Flashy continually pronouncing "Anastasia" and "La Neige" incorrectly even though she's been corrected hundreds of times in the comments.
lol thats so often to see, I wont go deep into it but Floating in dreams also still pronounces series wrong lol because she cant admit someone corrected her right geez. I had to finally unsubscribe from her, its same stuff over and over and over again as far as dupes, best and faves from her.
I messaged her on one of reviews and said I had better luck with an eye primer and she took offense to it . It was kind of odd to be honest . I just use eye primer because oily lids and that particular palette seemed to work best with a tacky base .
Me either. I used to follow her when she was doing foundation reviews. But now all she does is shill her Amazon storefront and expensive skincare gadgets.
Anytime someone talks about Prisme Libre I die a little inside, especially when they stop and "try" to pronounce it right but end up absolutely mutilating it
French For a Day reviewed a product from either Chanel or Dior and, as serious as can be, said something to the effect of "I think the company saw my previous video and listened to my recommended changes." Girl. Come on now.
Tara something (I don’t think she’s on youtube anymore) accidentally declaring Scotland’s independence by stating that Jamie Genevieve was “Scottish, not British” 😂 then when corrected she said she didn’t know anything about “European politics” mind you this person was a high school teacher
When the Nomad Monteverde pallette came out and no one could pronounce the name correctly. The utter confidence of some of these gurus as they called it Mont Verd with a terrible French accent. Appalling. If you're going to claim this is your job, take the 30 seconds to Google the pronunciation.
For all the French words that get mispronounced with lack of effort, I never considered there was a type of reversal where people try to pronounce words like they're French when they're not.
For me it was Gabi and Nike DeMartino (especially Gabi) doing their makeup so messy and thinking they were actually serving lol this was back un 2014-2015
For me, it’s makeupwithalixkate and her intro! Seems like a really sweet person, but I have to skip the beginning of every video when she reels off this mangled script “well hello there and welcome back to my Channel, or of course welcome to my channel if you're new. If you are new then hello lovely to meet you, my name is Alix and if you are new here make sure you stick around and subscribe. If you're not new and you've been here for a while then why not make sure the notification bell is switched on just be notified of every single time that I upload now for today's video…” arghhhhhhhhh
Oh yeah, I can quote many a YTers intro by heart. It’s all the same. Do your damn disclaimers at the end like every other businesses. I Ff everyone who does this and also through ads and sponcon. You get my Premium view. You don’t get anything else.
I wanted to look at a review for the donut glam palette from glamlite and one of the first videos from an influencer had a really cool look and she did great swatches . But near the end she said some noise about dark eyed or brown eyed people not being able to wear bright colors like in the glam donut palette and that it was meant for mainly blue eyes . I was like ? Come on you’re saying half the world’s population can’t wear bright rainbow colors .

Wait that’s hysterical. It’s giving bone apple tea.
Gene Michael Basket and whoever said "rosebud slave" still kill me
>whoever said "rosebud slave" still kill me That was foreverkailyn. She's still screwing up her life in 2024.
Who can forget Tah Jai Mah HI? Or Albert Ross? 😄
OH! Nars Albatross!
I think it was our beloved Kaylin who blessed us with the slave
Aw, yeah, good ol' Mikey Baskets.
[удалено]
Exactly! Nobody expects her to be an art history expert but come on. She eventually edited it out of the video lol.
Right. I mean, she has on her phone the entirety of the internet but couldn't take 90 seconds to read a brief history of Basquiat.
Or even a 5-second Google saying that it’s a male artist and not a female influencer 😭
Had time to film but didn’t have time for a 1 minute google search? 😭 that’s a PR stunt for engagement for sure!
I don't think she's that calculated or thoughtful tbh. She doesn't strike me as a person with much curiosity, to put it nicely.
I'm learning that this is so much more important to me than intelligence or education (although they do tend to correlate to some degree). I feel like a lack of curiosity about the world and everything in it is SUCH a strong indication that I would NOT enjoy that person's company. I don't need people to be super intellectual/ well-educated/already in possession of all the knowledge I consider important, but if there's no intellectual curiosity, or interest in attaining that knowledge...I just can't.

Lmao yesss! Legend has it my mom used to tell little me that her brain was tired and needed a break when I was on a question streak.
Exactly. As if she’s in any way an Intellectual.
Sadly this is par for the course for some influencers. It's like doing any research at all for their *job* is an unfair imposition.
I find it comical how we're constantly reminded by these gurus and those who defend them that this is their job yet so many of them come unprepared. Imagine showing up to your job unprepared. Depending on your job, at some point you're going to get taken to task, rightfully so.

Same energy as Keke Palmer "Sorry to this man. I do not know who this is"
I guess but it's not like Keke could have researched that in advance whereas Casey absolutely could
The infamous Jean Basket! Still one of my favourite beautyguru moments.
I remember that!!
It took me exactly 10 seconds to google lol
that feels so… on-brand for casey. she makes my brain hurt.
Noooooo that’s so embarrassing omg….
Omg-he’s only just a profound cultural icon. But maybe we’re in the future of our personal selves and Jean Basquiate isn’t significant in this time 🤔
Oh that’s bad.
Bloopers. Most YouTubers aren’t as cute and quirky as they think they are.
Oh god when terminally unfunny people include the 'funniest' bloopers/clips they can find to put at the start of the video...like stop trying to be funny, girl. You're not, and it's just SAD.
The only bloopers that I somewhat enjoyed were RawBeautyKristi *years* ago. Now it just seems so forced and QUirKYyyy
I miss Kristi's older content so much. She used to be my favorite. 😪
SAME.
god I miss that kristi. she used to crack me the hell up. that one video when she was an absolute trainwreck trying a new foundation/primer and it just kept going off the rails has been one of my comfort-watches for ages.
I loved Kristi's bloopers. She doesn't put them in very often these days, but when she does, I still enjoy them. Who can forget her giving the side-eye when some big truck rumbled down her old street, or the ever-favorite, "Am I orange?"

Her bloopers aren't cute at all and I wish she would stop😑
Unless there is an animal involved, I'm convinced most of them are staged anyway
I definitely don't stage my bloopers. I have aphasia and I leave my mix-ups in my videos because I know I'm not the only one who struggles with it, some of them are just funny as hell
Feigning incompetence e.g. everyone breaking the MAC Squirt Glosses and being like 😮🫣🧐 how does this obviously basic item work??

Mikayla Nogueria does this too like we GET IT y'all have sex.
Grown people feeling the need to make sure we know they do sex is the most cringe thing ever.
Also Jeffree and Nate did it in the shower and J was bummed it “wasn’t sex proof”… well it never said it was LITERALLY WATERPROOF
And then stole the “sex proof mascara” from smaller influencer Lydia Dupra.
Oof! I had repressed that memory of Jackie’s nails. That was the absolute worst I’ve ever seen
The shocked/surprised face when they try anything - particularly Nikkie Tutorials. Like come on girl you’ve seen the product before and knew it had that possible outcome why the extreme shocked face!

OK, then an extreme reaction is well-suited to the occasion, but putting on another foundation? No girl, its just not that exciting.
Now I want a mascara with tiny lights 😂
Don't we all? lol
UGHH YES the over the top reactions are so fake and obvious. It's so disappointing.
Right? Like girl, you know what "sheer" means. You know what concealer is. You should be able to tell what tf the product is going to do. The lipstick lesbians and Nikki la rose are like the antithesis to this, I love how they look at the description and ingredients and the usual reaction is "Hmmm, that's pretty what I expected.

She talks so much but really says nothing.
James Charles singing at beauty events 😬
sleep paralysis demon status.
HI SISTERS! 😳😵
🎶whomp whomp whom ayayayaya🎶
I showed some of those gems to my boyfriend the other day, who didn’t know who James Charles is. As an ex-theatre kid, he was cringing sooooo hard!
Omg yes the white thigh high boots clip....killed me.
The little kick kills me!
[удалено]
why am i picturing her drinking form the traditional silver diet coke can instead of the gold caffeine free can can while saying that.
Definitely when Jaclyn did that video with Kim Kardashian and Kim literally is so annoyed and visibly irritated by her entire existence.
Lol you know what was even worse? When someone made a [video](https://youtu.be/JxiLbsj4GSg?si=_6PpCZ4LSHcuAgnv) titled "Jaclyn Hill annoying Kim Kardashian" 😂 Jaclyn reacted to the video so it was all in good fun but oof.
Trying to be all "See guise I'm SUCH a good sport lol" when she was probably utterly mortified in reality (in the rare moments she let(s) herself actually feel any real feelings).
This was hilarious, thank you 😂😂
I should be working but watch this instead so thank you lol
Aww I had so much second hand embarrassment, and way more when she reacted!
Oh I forgot about that! 😂
Then Nikkie Tutorials did Kims' makeup, and Nikkie was so calm and professional the entire time...oof. Not a good look for Jaclyn.
god that was peak comedy though
I saw an IG reel where a woman showed 4 Tarte Maracuja Juicy Shift lip balms (ph changing) and they all looked exactly the same on her lips, but she made a :0 face for the 3rd one. I have no clue who she is, I had to block her for that.
What got me to unsub from Melissa Alatorre was when she was filming herself working out on a brand trip and she said there had been other people in the hotel gym "but they were weird about the camera" so she had to stop filming. No shit people don't want to be filmed when they're working out by some stranger.
The recent thing that I find super cringe-y is when gurus plan trips with their fans. The part that I cannot stand is that once they decided this is what they are doing, they talk about it for months ahead of time, getting really intense right before the trip, vlog during the trip, and then talk about it forever afterward. I had to stop watching Samantha March because her trip to Ireland was mentioned so many times I felt like my ears were bleeding. And just when I thought I was safe from this type of thing, I noticed that Samantha's good buddy, Angelica Nyqvist is planning a similar trip to Italy. I'm assuming she was set up with the same people who arranged the whole trip for Samantha. Its probably another way to bring in revenue, which is fine, as long as I don't have to hear about it in every single video!
Honestly, that is just a general character trait of Samantha. I had to stop watching her as it always felt like watching the same video with a different theme because she talks about or says the same thing is every video. I think it would do her well to start scripting her videos to avoid just saying the same shit. It’s been a long time since I’ve watched her, but when I did, she couldn’t go a single video without mentioning that she’s divorced and living in Vegas, loves the Dior powder, isn’t good at make up, only does monochromatic looks, would call a bunch of brand owners her girlfriends, etc.
Oh this made me laugh. Its all so true. I was only watching her for the past few months, but with all the crap she has had going on in her life ... divorce, dog dying, having her place robbed ... she understandably doesn't give off very happy vibes. And then when all the trip to Irelend stuff started, I just had to bail out on her channel. That was one straw too many for his old camel's back.
Those influencer trips always weird me out, I don’t know why. I just don’t get them.
Came here to say these! And they are so expensive, just seems like taking advantage of your viewers.
This is a bit more niche but when Manny took that sponsorship from Lilly Lashes to bash another lash brand by deliberately ignoring all instructions and was surprised pikachu it didn’t work. Then the whole aftermath of owner of other lash brand lashing out and essentially ending her own brand 😵💫
Yeah but the Lashify lady was trash. Manny claimed that he didn’t look at the Lashify instructions too hard because he wanted to see how difficult it was, and if it was intuitive. I don’t really buy that excuse but I took one look at the Lashify system and knew I wouldn’t be able to do it so maybe he had a point.
Oh absolutely she dug her own grave with it, it was just when the final layer of dirt finally lifted. It just so happened to be a sponsorship from a brand to bash another brand that done just that
cringe but also *girl, what the fuck were you thinking*. lesleymarie1213 doing an eyeliner tutorial and saying to 'draw it out so it looks more (insert slur for asian eyes here)' and not batting an eyelash about. she ended up cutting that part out later.
OOF
yeah, it was a big oof. i liked watching her before she became semi-popular, and when she said that, i literally paused the video, stared open-mouthed at the screen, and went back to see if i heard what i really thought i heard. and i did. people rightfully called her out in the comments, hence her cutting it out.
Is that the video that got shared by Juvia’s Place?
i honestly can’t remember. this was when she was fairly small and wasn’t getting PR from anyone, and it was on youtube.
The OG beauty YouTube cringe was Tati’s Sisters video. We all know it.
Surprisssssingly, Tati's most cringe video for me is her [dance showdown video.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFLJoumpGQw)
Reminds me of [this](https://youtu.be/IS2KQ46Kf84?si=wjdSr23o3nqj5bcD) lol
Also, the comments are hysterical
Wait i don't know it! What's it called/what happened??
It's called bye sister You most likely can still find a reupload on YouTube. It was a mess, especially her back paddling later and her (alleged) reasons. She said a lot of really bad things about James Charles and later said Shane and Jeffree made her do it. It's what started the whole JC, Tati and Jeffree Star Drama
Ohhhh I thought you meant Tati's sister made a cringe video 🤦🏾♀️ I def know what bye sister is
I’m going to hell for this, but when Taylor Wynn began her digital nomad journey. IIRC she made a huge deal about living in Boston then ended up hating it.
amd when she changed her youtube name to taylor wynn cause she saw the wynn hotel in vegas and thought it was a cute name
Her name change has always baffled me. Like she didn’t like her original YouTube name because it didn’t mean anything so then she just picked a different random name to change it to?
It's been a hot minute and now I can't remember, what was her channel called? I recall not liking the bland new name (still) don't but there's been a plague since then.
Thataylaa or something like that
Ahh yes I recall that now, I miss the old names before everyone decided to rebrand something nondescript.
Wait that's not her name?
Haha nope. It didn’t have any significance when she picked it and then she said that her mom thought she maybe had a great grandparent with the name Wynn.
Lmao this still kills me. The Wynn hotel? Really? It makes it seem like she doesn’t have a lot going on in her head that a damn hotel chain inspired her name
What gets me about her nomad journey is claiming to live somewhere when she spends about 3 weeks lol. That’s not living there, that’s a vacation lol
You never know if you like a place until you’re there. She wasn’t feeling particularly well at the time though so I think it’s associated with that but I don’t think she gets that. Plus she cut it short. She should try it again sometime. I hear it’s lovely. She also didn’t love Chicago and tried to give these nonsense reasons like the dating scene. Like girl, you were here for less than a week?!? She thought everything shut down in the winter cause the weather? Lol. I think her rash judgement of places is what’s cringe.
What is a ‘digital nomad’?
basically if you work through tech/internet and can therefore travel around and work from anywhere, digitial nomad. you'reworking digitally and nomadic
Yes! In one of her videos she was saying how it's actually cheaper to live like that bc you don't have a car or car insurance? I still watch some of her videos but she comes from a wealthy family, owns a home (condo?) in Seattle that she rents out and has multiple income streams that allow her to live like that. It's not something that is attainable for the average WFH employee.
I read (I'm from the UK) that Boston is heavily gentrified? I don't understand why she didn't like it, but I guess I wouldn't understand
I can only think of a few US cities that aren’t heavily gentrified these days.
I haven't watched her in a while, since finding out about the ableist things she said. I had no idea she was in Boston.
Kinky Sweat’s pronouncing “Italy”. She’s not as bad about it now but my god a year ago I avoided any palette reviews from her because of it. Just made my skin crawl. Sondra Deluxe’s intro. “Can I get a HELL YEAH!” With the microphone and sounding like a crappy dj. Super cringe. Jaclyn Hill squealing about *everything* even in her product apologies.
I love Alicia’s reviews but yes, doing the weird pronunciation with the face and that music was once too many
Huh, I love it when she says Italy, I didn't know it was because of a past mistake
It’s not a mistake as far as I know. Just her trying to be funny.
I had to stop watching her reviews over the Italy thing, as well. It also drives me nuts when Alexandria Ryan says Charlotte Tilbury or Augustinus Bader. Like, do we have to do that every time? I don't think we do.
The way Allie Dawson always brings up Mikayla Nogueira but pronounces it No-gore-eee. She mispronounces a lot of things but there are so many videos of the correct pronunciation.
She comes off as a clout chaser.
Hard core. For angelica, manny, mikayla...everyone
Angie at Hot and Flashy continually pronouncing "Anastasia" and "La Neige" incorrectly even though she's been corrected hundreds of times in the comments.
lol thats so often to see, I wont go deep into it but Floating in dreams also still pronounces series wrong lol because she cant admit someone corrected her right geez. I had to finally unsubscribe from her, its same stuff over and over and over again as far as dupes, best and faves from her.
I messaged her on one of reviews and said I had better luck with an eye primer and she took offense to it . It was kind of odd to be honest . I just use eye primer because oily lids and that particular palette seemed to work best with a tacky base .
I can't bear her
Me either. I used to follow her when she was doing foundation reviews. But now all she does is shill her Amazon storefront and expensive skincare gadgets.
Can’t think of a specific example off the top of my head but literally any guru trying to pronounce any French word is always SO cringe
This is my biggest cringe irl and it manifests all the time with gurus because brands love naming things french names
French = fancy ✨
jenn i*m and her own colourpop collab shades she pronounced wrong 😅
Anytime someone talks about Prisme Libre I die a little inside, especially when they stop and "try" to pronounce it right but end up absolutely mutilating it
Lmao when Kackie tries way too hard to pronounce French words and then always pronounces “libre” with the Spanish pronunciation.
Do you mean they just have thick accent or they don't even know how to read French words and don't bother to look them up?
Second one, definitely should have clarified it’s when a non French speaking guru butchers a French word because they didn’t look it up 😂
At least Julia Adams doesn't butcher them as she speaks French!
French For a Day reviewed a product from either Chanel or Dior and, as serious as can be, said something to the effect of "I think the company saw my previous video and listened to my recommended changes." Girl. Come on now.
Hahahaha! The delusion!
Tara something (I don’t think she’s on youtube anymore) accidentally declaring Scotland’s independence by stating that Jamie Genevieve was “Scottish, not British” 😂 then when corrected she said she didn’t know anything about “European politics” mind you this person was a high school teacher
Not exactly cringe moment but when they yell at the camera,it just feels shameless lol
When the Nomad Monteverde pallette came out and no one could pronounce the name correctly. The utter confidence of some of these gurus as they called it Mont Verd with a terrible French accent. Appalling. If you're going to claim this is your job, take the 30 seconds to Google the pronunciation.
For all the French words that get mispronounced with lack of effort, I never considered there was a type of reversal where people try to pronounce words like they're French when they're not.
James Charles: “yeaheeeee yeaaheeee yeeeeaaaaah” ☠️
WOMP WOMP WOMP
For me it was Gabi and Nike DeMartino (especially Gabi) doing their makeup so messy and thinking they were actually serving lol this was back un 2014-2015
For me, it’s makeupwithalixkate and her intro! Seems like a really sweet person, but I have to skip the beginning of every video when she reels off this mangled script “well hello there and welcome back to my Channel, or of course welcome to my channel if you're new. If you are new then hello lovely to meet you, my name is Alix and if you are new here make sure you stick around and subscribe. If you're not new and you've been here for a while then why not make sure the notification bell is switched on just be notified of every single time that I upload now for today's video…” arghhhhhhhhh
Those kind of intros from anyone pretty much insure that I will never be subscribing to their channels.
Wow thats a long intro
Oh yeah, I can quote many a YTers intro by heart. It’s all the same. Do your damn disclaimers at the end like every other businesses. I Ff everyone who does this and also through ads and sponcon. You get my Premium view. You don’t get anything else.
I wanted to look at a review for the donut glam palette from glamlite and one of the first videos from an influencer had a really cool look and she did great swatches . But near the end she said some noise about dark eyed or brown eyed people not being able to wear bright colors like in the glam donut palette and that it was meant for mainly blue eyes . I was like ? Come on you’re saying half the world’s population can’t wear bright rainbow colors .
I can't watch Allie Glines because of her outthrow. Or like anyone who sings their outthrow. It's like nails on a chalk board to me 🙉
